FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: (PRWEB) February 7, 2001

The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) is exploring new training frontiers with a forthcoming workshop on Internet Addiction. According to the faculty, internet behaviour expert Richard Davis, “people who are addicted to the Internet have difficulty cutting down on their Internet use, constantly think about the Internet when they are offline, spend less time with their family and friends, neglect work or school and exhibit several problematic behaviours that affect daily life functioning.”

“This issue is certain to grow as Internet use expands and this is a good opportunity to learn more about it,” said Bernard Monette, Specialist with CAMH’s Education and Training Services. “This will provide an opportunity to begin the discussion about some of the negative consequences associated with using the Internet and to begin to assess the treatment needs for people who experience these difficulties,” Monette said. The workshop, to take place on March 8, 2001, is part of CAMH’s ongoing work to educate health professionals about mental health and addiction related conditions.

This one-day workshop – the first of its kind in Canada – designed to educate health care professionals to recognize, assess and treat Internet addiction. Davis is a Ph.D. candidate at York University and CEO of the online health company CanadaMD.com. He has found that “many Canadian doctors, social workers, nurses and other allied professionals are not aware of the symptoms of Internet Addiction…Canadians are spending more and more time online, and in some cases their offline worlds are being negatively affected. Health professionals need to become aware of this problem and how they can help their clients manage it effectively.”

The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health is the largest mental health and addiction facility in Canada and has been designated by the World Health Organization as a Centre of Excellence.

CanadaMD.com is an Internet healthcare company, based in Toronto, connecting Canadian

physicians and consumers to the entire healthcare industry.

Edjweb Mediaworks launches The Worry Bank; focused online community.

TORONTO, ON – May 25, 2001 – Edjweb Mediaworks is proud to launch its new recreational online community, The Worry Bank at http://www.worrybank.com, which offers people a place to dismiss their worries. This free web site contains many relaxing distractions such as words of encouragement, games, discussion forums, and most importantly it offers a non-medical way for worriers to take their minds off their problems for a while.

Noticing a gap in this category of entertaining web sites, Edjweb Mediaworks Director of Operations, Eileen Seigel felt that The Worry Bank had obvious potential. “Everybody has worries”, says Mrs. Seigel. “I have read so many articles by doctors and therapists that have discussed the negative impact worrying has on peoples’ health. Most of the things people that worry about don’t even end up happening.” Stress relief and a fun site to keep coming back to are the main goals of The Worry Bank, according to Mrs. Seigel. “The Worry Bank is not meant to replace therapists, medicine, or other professional means of help. It’s an entertaining site for amusement. People often say to me ‘I wish someone else could do my worrying for me’ and I thought, ‘why not’? The Worry Bank is a place where people can deposit their worries and withdraw encouragement.”

This is one of the sites being developed under the Edjweb Mediaworks umbrella that will create a focused online audience, allowing for a much more successful means of direct marketing. David Seigel, the Director of Business Development for Edjweb Mediaworks, believes that The Worry Bank can create a market that has not been produced online before. “It gives people a light-hearted place to share and shed their worries,” says Mr. Seigel. “When our community continues to grow and people keep coming back to the site for the same purpose, we’ll be able to suggest larger distractions than games or encouragement. Booking a vacation or buying a lava lamp might help soothe peoples’ frazzled nerves. The possibilities for direct marketing are endless.”

Edjweb Mediaworks is located in Toronto, Ontario Canada. The company strives to provide top quality online marketing and focused community development. For additional information on Edjweb Mediaworks, visit their Web site at http://www.edjweb.com or call (416) 618-4422.

(PRWEB) January 17, 2003

When you think of Catholic colleges in the U.S., almost immediately the names of Notre Dame, Catholic University, and Georgetown come to mind. Of course, Villanova, Holy Cross, and Boston College all ring a bell too.

But one of America’s best kept secrets is Christendom College, located on over 100 acres on the outskirts of the historic town of Front Royal, Virginia, serving students from 44 states and four foreign countries. In fact, Christendom College, although relatively unknown in the U.S., is acknowledged by Pope John Paul II as “doing a great work for the Church.”

Founded in 1977 by noted historian and author, Dr. Warren H. Carroll, with the gracious assistance of then-Bishop of Arlington, Thomas Welsh, Christendom College has grown from a student body of 26 to 358 in the undergraduate program and 185 in their graduate program, the Notre Dame Graduate School of Christendom College. According to Carroll, the purpose and goal of Christendom College “is not only to provide a fully and truly Catholic liberal arts education of the highest quality and to maintain the idea of Christendom, but also to show how Christendom works in action, even when confined to a small campus and its surrounding community of Catholic faithful.”

Christendom College is fully accredited while at the same time, adhering to its decision to neither seek nor accept Federal funds.

“At a time when much of university education over-emphasizes job training and classes are frequently taught in large auditoriums, Christendom College provides its students with a well-rounded education in a personal environment. Students are immersed in a carefully structured curriculum of liberal arts disciplines. Our graduates are able to read critically, to think logically, and to express themselves clearly – skills necessary for any profession,” says Paul Heisler, Director of Admissions

Christendom College was recently ranked by U.S. News & World Report as first among all national liberal arts colleges in America in the category of “least debt incurred by its graduates.” With the combination of moderately priced tuition rates, financial aid packages, and availability of scholarships, Barron’s Compact Guide to Colleges and Best Buys in Education define Christendom, as a “very competitive” college with a “demanding workload.” Insight magazine placed Christendom atop its selective listing of the “Top 15″ colleges, saying that Christendom (as well as other select colleges) is an academic institution that offers “students a well-rounded education,” and “where professors are committed to teaching and traditional values are not suppressed.”

The 2002-03 Undergraduate Bulletin, lists faculty and, most notably, where they did their undergraduate and graduate studies. Notre Dame, Columbia, Catholic University, University of Virginia, Bates, St. John’s, Hillsdale, University of Toronto, Hunter College, Fordham, University of Dallas, Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas, Georgetown, and University of Oregon are some of the more prominent schools listed. Christendom President, Timothy T. O’Donnell was the first lay man to receive a Doctorate of Sacred Theology (S.T.D.) from the Angelicum in Rome.

O’Donnell, who has served as Christendom’s President since 1992, says that “the primary aim of Christendom College is of course academic, but intellectual formation should never be severed from spiritual, social, and personal formation. Education is furthered not only in the classroom and in the chapel, but also at mealtime, in leisure time, and throughout the entire day as students converse with each other and with professors. Christendom is not merely a curriculum of courses: it is an education in which the whole man matures in wisdom, in virtue, and in ability – intellectually, morally, socially, and spiritually.”

According to Dr. Mitchell Kalpakgian, former professor of English at Christendom College, “Skeptics will of course argue that the alternative Catholic college creates an artificial environment, an escape from the problems of life and the “real world.” How will students ever learn to cope with the opposition they will face in secular society if they are protected from opposition and do not encounter a pluralistic world in their undergraduate years? Such question presupposes that the purpose of education is to learn to cope rather than to be nourished and strengthened with the truth. Why should parents spend exorbitant sums for their children to cope – a lesson that requires no formal education since much of their lives will involve the many crosses, trials, and temptations to which human flesh is heir? Who copes better with the opponent in battle, the soldier who is trained and disciplined or the recruit with no experience? Who is better equipped to win in athletics or in the battle of ideas or in the struggle between good and evil, those who have learned to use their bodies and minds and consciences to the fullest or those who are unarmed? Christendom College prepares its students with all the “armor” that St. Paul speaks of for the battles against powers and principalities.”

In addition to the undergraduate program, in 1997 Christendom College merged with the Notre Dame Institute to form the Notre Dame Graduate School of Christendom College (NDGS). Now, in its fifth year, the NDGS offers a Master of Arts degree in Theological Studies with concentrations in catechetics, spirituality, dogmatic theology, and Sacred Scripture. According to Rev. William Saunders, Ph.D, Dean of the NDGS Graduate School from 1997-2002, “Our graduate programs offer a comprehensive grasp of the Catholic faith, enabling graduates to teach the Faith with extraordinary effectiveness. To teach the Faith involves more than the transmission of information about religion; rather it requires a manner of teaching and bearing witness that facilitates an understanding of the relationship between faith and life.”

Now celebrating its 25th Anniversary, Christendom College believes that it’s time to let everyone in on America’s best kept secret.
